For XMC4000 family

Introduction

1 Introduction
This document describes the features and hardware details of the XMC4800 IoT Amazon FreeRTOS Connectivity kit
with EtherCAT® equipped with an ARM® Cortex®-M4 based XMC microcontroller from Infineon Technologies AG.
It can be used with a wide range of development tools including Infineon's free of charge Eclipse based IDE DAVE . The
XMC4800 IoT Amazon FreeRTOS Connectivity kit with EtherCAT® is designed to evaluate the capabilities of the
XMC4800 microcontroller especially in EtherCAT® slave applications. Table 1 shows the kit specification.
This kit includes the WiFi module mikroBUS from MikroElektronica based on ESP-WROOM-02 device. More
